Are you tired of blurry and pixelated results when reframing your 8K 360 footage in DaVinci Resolve? Chances are, you’ve been following the wrong tutorials! In this masterclass, I’ll show you the real way to reframe 360 video in DaVinci Resolve while maintaining the best image quality possible. Whether you’re using the Insta360 X4, GoPro Max, or Qoocam 3 Ultra, this step-by-step tutorial will guide you through the correct workflow.
Unlike other tutorials, we don’t cut corners. We’ll show you how to harness the power of DaVinci Resolve Studio, how to avoid common mistakes, and how to use pro-level techniques that ensure your footage looks its absolute best. Plus, I’ll even reveal a faster workflow with onscreen reframe controls like the Insta360 mobile app or Adobe Premiere GoPro FX Reframe to save you time and VRAM on slower computers!
